So from 1150 to 230 lbs of flour remaining...
The percentage decrease was by
percentage decrease = ((b-a)/b)*100
b is the original value
a is the other value
p= ((1150-230)/1150)*100
p = (920 /1150) * 100
p = (0.8) * 100
p = 80
The percentage decrease is 80% from 1150 to 230 lbs of flour.
Hope this helps :)
I’m pretty sure it’s -15 but don’t take my word for it

Answer:
-9x^9y^5
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the multiply first:
-16x^9y^5+7x^9y^5
=x^9y^5(-16+7)
=-9x^9y^5
Answer: Approximately 4.7 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
He rode the bicycle for some time before it broke down and he walked the remaining distance. This means that Jim covered a total of 165 miles by riding at a speed of 35 miles per hour and walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour.
Let x = the distance covered by riding the bicycle.
Let y = the distance covered by walking.
Time = distance /speed
Time he used in riding would be x/35
Time he used in walking would be y/3
Since the entire trip took 7 hours,
x/35 + y/3 = 7
3x + 35y = 735 - - - - - - - - 1
Total miles covered is 165. Therefore,
x + y = 165 - - - - - - - - -- - -2
Substituting x = 165-y into equation 1, it becomes
3(165-y) + 35y = 735
495-3y + 35y = 735
-3y + 135y = 735-495
132y = 240
y = 240/132
y = 1.81m
x = 165 - 1.81 = 163.19
Amount of time that he spent on the bicycle will be
x/35 = 163.19/35
= 4.66
Approximately 4.7 hours.
